Divine Love / Divine Intolerance: Biblical, Historical, and Sociological Perspective on Tolerance, the Corruption of its Meaning, and its Corrosive Ef

By Darrell J. Ahrens

What shall we tolerate?

How that question is answered will determine our morals, ethics, integrity and virtue our very identity as a nation and a people. Tolerance has become the idol of secular liberalism, a tolerance that demands approval of beliefs and

lifestyles in direct opposition to God's Holy Word, the Scriptures. God, though supremely patient, loving, and forgiving towards us sinners for Jesus' sake, does not and cannot tolerate sin and rebellion against His holy commands.

This book draws striking parallels between Old Testament Israel's tolerance of sin and rebellion against God's Word and our tolerance of sin and rebellion against God's Word in America today, including its disastrous effects on Church, Government, Education, Society and Culture. This ungodly tolerance is drawing America away from our Judeo-Christian foundation and our Founding Fathers' values and vision for America -values and vision crucial to the nation's welfare and prosperity. To ignore or abandon those values and continue our slide into immorality will inevitably bring judgment on America just as it did to Old Testament Israel.

Intolerance, rather than tolerance, is often the sign of genuine divine and human love. Genuine love has its source in God's Word of Truth, and genuine love never yields one iota of that Truth. Divine love for the sinner and divine intolerance of sin are clearly seen in the cross of Christ.

What is America's best hope for reversing the nation's religious, institutional, and cultural decline? Scripture and the writings of the Founding Fathers and other historical figures give us the answer.

Divine love Devine Intolerance

Very well written book. We read it from beginning to end. Interesting correlation between Old Testament Israel's tolerance of sin and our tolerance of sin today in America. Too bad it's the truth. Scarey what we are allowing to happen to ourselves in America

Christian viewpoint on cultural change

Has the pendulum swung far enough? How much is enough? Will our cultural slide into decadence be stopped in time to save America? As this book makes plain, we are in deep trouble and there are some actions that neither god nor men of conscience can tolerate. It may be too late but that books like this one are published is encouraging.

The need for intolerance in American Society

The author clearly lays out the Judeo Christian foundations of American Society from the Old to the New Testament and on to the Founding Fathers. He leaves no doubt in the mind of the reader that American values were Christian based and that liberal secularism is not to be tolerated. His arguments are well documented and thought provoking. I strongly recommend this book to potential readers.

THOUGHTFUL BOOK

This is a thoughtful book for anyone who is concerned about the direction our society is taking. It is Christian in orientation and draws its conclusions from that worldview. Highly recommended.
